Evening 🙂

Some snippets from 80s soundtrack at restaurant we've just eaten at

  1. We are far too young and clever
  1. No happy ever after now we're friends
  1. Side by side on my piano keyboard
  1. All I needed was the love you gave
  1. In the back row of the classroom , how could I resist
  1. And when I get that feeling
  1. I'm on the hunt
  1. Get into a car and drive to the other side, into the night , into the light
  1. All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see your eyes

It was an Italian restaurant - but not in Italy

He rattled his maracas close to me
In no time I was trembling at the knee

anothersmahedmug · 13/02/2022 21:24

The you don't remember me do you one?

anothersmahedmug · 13/02/2022 21:24

That would be it started with a kiss if so

shinynewapple22 · 13/02/2022 21:25

All yours correct Midge, yes to Dexys, Dexter, but you need the title of the Hot Chocolate song !

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 13/02/2022 21:26
  1. And when I get that feeling

Hmmmm this could be either
Marvin Gaye, Sexual Healing

Or

Texas, Say What You Want (think that's what it's called)

@anothersmahedmug

It's Marvin Gaye, does the Texas song have the same lyrics then ?
dexterslockedintheshedagain · 13/02/2022 21:31

Yup!

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 13/02/2022 21:31

Unusually observant for me!

anothersmahedmug · 13/02/2022 21:34

Bit of a theme here…

  1. Like a desert sun
That burns my skin (80s)
  1. You’re old enough, some people say
To read the signs and walk away It’s only time that heals the pain And makes the sun come out again (80s)
  1. Just walking along
My clothes are soaked right through to the skin I haven’t a doubt That this is what life’s all about (80s)
  1. Tearing me apart like a new emotion
(80s)
  1. I can’t stand myself
I’m being held up by an invisible man (2000s?)
  1. It’s such a shame our friendship had to end
(80s)
  1. It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me (2000s)
  1. It’s only right that you should play the way you feel it.
But listen carefully to the sound (70s, copied 80s)
  1. Just about half past ten..
(80s)
  1. We’re under the same sky And the nights as empty for me as for you If you feel you can’t wait til morning…… (90s)
